WINTER was supposed to confront his father that morning but much to his disappointment, his father went out during dawn. According to the servants, his father was summoned by His Majesty that early.
And then, during lunch time, a terrible incident happened.
His father arrived at the mansion with his stepmother in his arms. He noticed right away that his stepmother was heavily injured. Thus, the commotion from the servants who greeted his parents in the main entrance of the mansion.
"What happened, Father?" Winter asked worriedly while cheking if his father was hurt too. Thankfully, he looked fine to him. "Were you attacked?"
"I wasn't hurt," his father said, then he turned to his stepmother. "Lucina was on her way to my office to bring me lunch when her carriage was attacked."
He heard a collective gasp from the servants.
